Zap Energy Unveils "Century"

Century is the world’s first 100-kilowatt-scale repetitive Z-pinch system. Its goal is to integrate and test three major aspects of Zap’s power design: repetitive pulsed power supplies, plasma-facing circulating liquid metal walls, and technology for mitigating electrode damage. Century is designed to simulate plant-like operation by: Firing high-voltage pulses of power every ten seconds in a steady sequence for multiple hours (over 1,000 pulses at 0.1 Hz). Circulating 70 kilograms of hot liquid bismuth in its initial configuration and well over a ton in its final configuration. Air-cooled heat exchangers will remove the intense plasma heat absorbed by the liquid metal. Testing critical strategies for mitigating electrode damage due to extreme heat and neutron flux.
